Fans of the iconic director Quentin Tarantino will have noticed that few of his movies are set in the present day.

WWII-era "Inglourious Basterds" and revisionist spaghetti Western "Django: Unchained" were two good examples of this, as is the latest installment in the Tarantino oeuvre: "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood," which is nothing short of a love letter to the golden era of cinema.

Much like his films, it seems Tarantino likes to live his life in a bygone era, as the iconic director frequently rages against the trappings of modern technology and prefers to use more analogue methods himself.

From email to Netflix, these are four technological advancements that haven't quite reached the Tarantino household:

The kind of answering machine that Pitt seems to be alluding to (above) uses cassette tapes to record and replay messages.

Whereas modern voicemail can, of course, be accessed anywhere on your mobile, the answering machine users have to press a physical button on their device to listen to their messages, meaning you could have a wait on your hands if Tarantino misses your call.

The festival was screening "Pulp Fiction" in celebration of the movie's 20th anniversary since it won the Palm d'Or — but it was the only film screened in 35mm that year.

"As far as I'm concerned, digital projection is the death of cinema," Tarantino said in a conference, according to IndieWire.

"The fact that most films aren't presented in 35mm means that the world is lost. Digital projection is just television in cinema."

He added: "I'm hoping that while this generation is quite hopeless, that the next one will demand the real thing. I'm very hopeful that future generations will be much smarter than this generation and realize what they lost."

Digital film is significantly easier to reformat and resize for mobile viewers without compromising the picture quality, which in today's streaming-driven landscape makes it significantly more appealing for filmmakers financially.

However, as we know, Quentin Tarantino doesn't give a rat's ass about streaming.
